At Lamu Swim, we believe you shouldn't have to choose between premium quality and making more conscious choices.
That's why our bikinis are all made using high-quality recycled fabrics, including REPREVE® and ECONYL® regenerated nylon. These innovative materials allow us to create swimwear that's soft, durable and designed to last, while giving a new life to materials that already exist.
What is REPREVE®?
REPREVE® is a recycled fibre made from post-consumer plastic, including plastic bottles that might otherwise end up in landfill.
The plastic is collected, cleaned and transformed into premium fibres that offer the same comfort and performance you'd expect from traditional swimwear fabrics.
The result is a fabric that's:
- Soft and comfortable
- Durable enough for repeated wear
- Quick drying
- Designed to keep its shape
What is ECONYL®?
ECONYL® is a regenerated nylon made from discarded materials such as fishing nets, fabric offcuts, industrial plastic and old carpets.
These waste materials are broken down and regenerated into high-quality nylon that performs just like virgin nylon, without the need to create brand new material from fossil fuels.
It's a great example of how existing resources can be transformed into something beautiful again.
Why It Matters
Choosing recycled fabrics helps reduce waste and lowers the demand for new raw materials.
While no garment is completely impact-free, using innovative materials like REPREVE® and ECONYL® is one way we're working to reduce our environmental footprint while maintaining the premium quality we expect from every Lamu Swim piece.
Designed for More Than One Summer
We believe the most sustainable swimwear is swimwear you'll genuinely love wearing.
That's why we focus on creating flattering fits, timeless prints and premium fabrics that are designed to last season after season.
When you invest in quality, you're buying less often, and that's something we can all feel good about.
Our Commitment
Sustainability isn't a finish line, and we don't pretend to have all the answers.
What we can promise is that we'll continue making thoughtful choices wherever we can, from the fabrics we use to the way we package and produce our swimwear.
Every Lamu Swim bikini is designed to make you feel confident, comfortable and ready for your next adventure, while helping move the fashion industry, however slightly, in a better direction.
